Bio
Miryana Joksovic
I had the privilege of working directly with Grgomir at McCann-Erickson on the MasterCard account. Grgomir is one of those rare professionals who makes the workday pleasant and productive in equal measure. He brought a high-level of creativity to his public relations and media relations initiatives, was always up to the latest best practices in PR, analytical, insightful and proactive. Grgomir understood that brand equity needs to be built through a strong synergy between PR and advertising activities, and he consistently delivered on it which made him a great partner to work with. He inspired others in his department as a strong leader, and was able to motivate people to work together as a team during challenging times. Grgomir is an accomplished communications leader who builds strong and lasting relationships with the media and leverages those relationships to create very real impact for the brands and companies with whom he works. I am delighted to continue working with Grgomir on few joint projects.

Grgomir provides creative solutions and ideas that you must use in your PR campaign. Reliable to cooperate with because for each issue he finds a way-out.
Jeffer London - Leadership Facilitator
I came to know Grgomir when I was asked to bring together and develop the leadership skills of high potential staff from across the InterPublic Group Europe. Grgomir was put forward by his peers to join this elite group of leaders, where he fit in well among the other PR/marketing specialists and managing directors. Throughout the series of seminars, Grgomir helped to integrate the group and keep the discussions moving. His ability combine humour/wit with insights/results allows him to explain strategic ideas in a compelling way. I count on Grgomir for conceptualising new ideas and for pulling together teams to implement those ideas.
